Alex Hill is a first person point and click mystery game largely inspired by the Nancy Drew PC games along with other games like Dust: A Tale of the Wired West, King's Quest and Life is Strange.

Install instructions
To play the demo you will need to extract the zip file.
Right click on the file and press "extract all" or open the zip file and move the contents to another location.
When you've completed that, open the folder and click on the .exe file on PC or .app file on Mac.
Have fun!
(If you are on a Mac you might need to CTRL click the file to allow it to play.
If the textures on the characters glitch out, you probably need to update your graphics driver. There is a known issue of Windows not always updating to the latest driver even if it says it’s the latest.)

AHHH!! I just played the latest update! I really enjoyed the last one, but this update, especially with the puzzle and voice acting is so fun! I can't wait for character development and more scenery. It's beautiful!
Yay!! I’m glad you enjoyed it! ☺️
I just played the demo, and I love the premise! I can definitely see the Nancy Drew inspo, and I'm all for point-and-click games! This is a fantastic start to the game, and I especially LOVE the setting of the inn. I'll have to check out the Indiegogo campaign!
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you liked it so far! ^_^
This is awesome! What a great start! I'm super stoked to see how this develops. I am a long time fan of the Nancy Drew games, and this scratches an itch the way only cozy detective point and click games can. I love Alex's personality, and the scenery is beautiful! Great work, I'm so excited for this and I'd love to support you any way I can!
Wow, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I appreciate the support! :D
Can't wait to be able to share more! <3
